I feel dirty saying it, but Joakim Noah has become one of my favorites in the NBA.
Sounds like a personal problem.
He stepped up last night, I have to give him that. He's also a lot better an NBA player than people thought he would be, but he still has that priviledge attitude where he says a lot of stuff he probably shouldn't until he wins his first playoff series.

What a win by Utah. I love watching the Jazz play. I'm stunned that the Nuggets can't squash a Utah team that's missing two starters.
that's why a lot of voters gave a vote to jerry sloan for coach of the year.

Probably the same reason (I would hope) that voters gave a vote to Nate McMillian.

True. Nate did a FANTASTIC job this year.

He's not that important to that team as it's presently constructed.

He's their lone, consistent interior defensive threat. I'd say he's pretty important. Let's not underestimate how much Miami really sucks.
SEE: Rashard Lewis' game-winning layup after he blew by cement shoes a couple of months ago. And it's only gotten worse since then.

 
in the absence of Garnett, the ever-dependable, ever-dedicated Rasheed Wallace comes up with 6 big points, 5 big rebounds and of course his obligatory technical in 21 minutes of play.

During those 21 minutes, the Celtics were -12 ...meaning they were +41 in the 27 minutes Hashweed was not in the game.
 
Instead of slob-knobbering Kobe, TNT should have interviewed Ron Artest after the game. He won it for them with his defense. Plus, there's always the off chance he'll say some crazy ****.

What did Barkley say that caused him to apologize for using an expletive?

During halftime, there was a segment featuring two girls asking Barkley whether he preferred blondes or brunettes. I don't know if he thought they were referencing the BJ ordeal, but as they went to commercial, he laughingly called everyone assholes.

Good defense so far, but if he or Fisher could hit a shot longer than 2 feet, the games wouldn't come down to the last minute. Never thought I'd say this: I miss Sasha.
